Overview:
exception. Control is tranfered to the ``exception`` label if the
``catchpad`` is not an appropriate handler for the in-flight exception.
The ``normal`` label should contain the code found in the ``catch``
-portion of a ``try``/``catch`` sequence. It defines values supplied by
-the :ref:`personality function <personalityfn>` upon re-entry to the
-function. The ``resultval`` has the type ``resultty``.

-The '``catchpad``' instruction defines the values which are set by the
-:ref:`personality function <personalityfn>` upon re-entry to the function, and
-therefore the "result type" of the ``catchpad`` instruction. As with
-calling conventions, how the personality function results are
-represented in LLVM IR is target specific.
-
When the call stack is being unwound due to an exception being thrown,
the exception is compared against the ``args``. If it doesn't match,
then control is transfered to the ``exception`` basic block.
+As with calling conventions, how the personality function results are
+represented in LLVM IR is target specific.
The ``catchpad`` instruction has several restrictions:
catch block.
- A basic block that is not a catch block may not include a
'``catchpad``' instruction.
+- A catch block which has another catch block as a predecessor may not have
+ any other predecessors.
- It is undefined behavior for control to transfer from a ``catchpad`` to a
- ``cleanupret`` without first executing a ``catchret`` and a subsequent
- ``cleanuppad``.
-- It is undefined behavior for control to transfer from a ``catchpad`` to a
